Slash on Brazilian MTV (short clip) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxOZ7P4WPqo Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Smoking Guns on April 13, 2007, 06:33:47 PM Seems a lot more open to playing with old band for a couple shows than he did a year ago!
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Naupis on April 13, 2007, 06:49:02 PM Quote Seems a lot more open to playing with old band for a couple shows than he did a year ago! Or he is trying to make himself seem like the good guy to all the fans who want it that he is open to it (even if he really isn't and knowing Axl would rather die first) making him seem like an asshole in the process. What a shrewd and cunning media whore :hihi: Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: estrangedpaul on April 13, 2007, 07:19:39 PM Have you listened to Chinese Democracy? :rofl:
Do interviewers do any research. Maybe he thought Axl would have given him a pre-listen! Great answer, Slash!

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: CheapJon on April 14, 2007, 04:12:17 AM if god asked slash, slash would be there
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Locomotive98 on April 14, 2007, 04:13:54 AM What was his answer? Cant watch it, at work...
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Bert on April 14, 2007, 04:14:26 AM At least he doesn't look pissed off about Axl or GNR. That's a good thing.
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: CheapJon on April 14, 2007, 04:19:02 AM What was his answer? Cant watch it, at work... Q:have you listend to CD? A:No I haven't heard it, um.. it hasn't come out yet huhu Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Locomotive98 on April 14, 2007, 04:20:20 AM Lol, nice one Slash...
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Lethalis on April 14, 2007, 04:33:09 AM A reunion won't happen.. and even if it would, they would break up again.
Bury the issues and playing some shows together would be really cool however :peace: Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Skeletor on April 14, 2007, 04:34:12 AM and even if it would, they would break up again. The part where he said "just for a few shows" did imply that anyway...

What a shrewd and cunning media whore :hihi: Or, more likely, he's just got sick & tired of answering the same re-union question for years & years & years & years & years. By answering this way, he is acknowledging the media interest in such an event. By conceding that it might be interesting for people to see, without just saying "Never going to happen", he's hoping to close the question down & move on. That's the impression I get anyway. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: redx on April 14, 2007, 05:35:44 AM Slash will playing a couple of shows with GNR or reunion
What a missleading headline :hihi: He said he would consider a couple of shows. But we all know that won't happen, as Gn'R with Slash would recieve a big responce than the current line up, and Axl would not want that to happen ;) Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Jim Bob on April 14, 2007, 05:52:35 AM Slash is only saying this shit to try to detract attention from the current Guns. Shame on him. he's never said anything remotely close to this before, he just waits until GnR is getting ready to release chinese D and then trys to stir the fans up with his reunion shit.
slash fucking wishes axl would give him a reunion, of course. but its not happening, Axl would not sell himself out like that. : ok: Dream on slash. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Six Strings on April 14, 2007, 06:01:15 AM Slash will playing a couple of shows with GNR or reunion What a missleading headline? :hihi: He said he would consider a couple of shows. But we all know that won't happen, as Gn'R with Slash would recieve a big responce than the current line up, and Axl would not want that to happen? ;) So how come Izzy played last year? Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Where is Hassan Nasrallah ? on April 14, 2007, 06:20:20 AM that wouldnt be fair to axl
he's been trying his best to get away from the "original line-up" - ok he plays old songs, so what? - But it's been more than 7 years now that he came back with a new band, and we still THROW the "old guns n' roses" at his face. Axl is stuck between pleasing the fans, by playing old songs, and trying to get away from the name ... Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Jim Bob on April 14, 2007, 06:22:46 AM Slash will playing a couple of shows with GNR or reunion What a missleading headline :hihi: He said he would consider a couple of shows. But we all know that won't happen, as Gn'R with Slash would recieve a big responce than the current line up, and Axl would not want that to happen ;) So how come Izzy played last year? because Izzy was not only the band's co-founder, he is the only guy who was childhood friends with Axl. They go far far back and have been friends for a long long time. Also, Izzy doesn't seem to carry the ego that many of the other ex-members have and is probably easier to deal with, but thats just my observation/opinion. gah this is such a dead horse topic, why didn't you just post this in the reunion thread? Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: jazjme on April 14, 2007, 06:28:15 AM Slash will playing a couple of shows with GNR or reunion What a missleading headline :hihi: That and to mention the fact that Izzy is a free spirit, and hes been doing his thing for many yrs, does things when he wants, and obviously he and Axl have come to peace... and remain friends, and Izzy is just one of those guys who takes on things at his whim, helps out , if he wants, feels or I should say felt cool about playing with GNR as is now with no "ego" involved . But just to say hey yeah I'll rock it with you again! He said he would consider a couple of shows. But we all know that won't happen, as Gn'R with Slash would recieve a big responce than the current line up, and Axl would not want that to happen ;) So how come Izzy played last year? because Izzy was not only the band's co-founder, he is the only guy who was childhood friends with Axl.

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: pollyblue on April 14, 2007, 07:07:56 AM if a reunion happens, it has to happen between now and 5 years. otherwise it won't be credible anymore imo (the guys get older you know). anyway, i don't want the new line-up to break up either, but i'd love to see the od band perform again too. whatever; as long axl is there, i'm happy : ok:

Dream on slash. They asked him a question and he answered it honestly. What the fuck is wrong with that? It's not like he deliberately walks about everywhere going 'yeh there's going to be a re-union-don't bother seeing the new band'. Give the guy a break. :P Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: nadia on April 14, 2007, 08:21:53 AM That'd be cool. :love:
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Grouse on April 14, 2007, 09:21:36 AM How about merging the two threads ;)
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: cotis on April 14, 2007, 09:27:37 AM like I've said before, I'm happy with the lineup now. If in the future, the original guns would play a gig or two, maybe for Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame induction or so, I'd be extremely happy to see the guys back together.
but if not, no loss. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Calcy on April 14, 2007, 09:44:56 AM Would be a guaranteed money spinner for all involved no questions. Talking headlining stadium shows worldwide like '91.
But you never know what Chinese Democracy is going to do for the current line-up. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: shaunbhoy on April 14, 2007, 10:01:43 AM Slash is only saying this shit to try to detract attention from the current Guns.?

Dream on slash. If Slash wants to reunite with G'N'R for some shows like the way Izzy did last year then, l think it would be great. apart from what u think ::) we'll be seeing a reunion very shortly, lf it does happen its gonna be fuckin great ;D , it just shows u how much Slash cares about reuniting ;) , if it does happen l will be fuckin laughing :hihi: , the only reason u post shit saying that The Axl Rose Band has no future plans of reuniting the old G'N'R is because u hate Slash ;) think about it dude if Slash was'nt around there would been no G'N'R 8) , this is a Velvet Revolver board if u want to talk about The Axl Rose Band go to the new G'N'R Board if u hate Velvet Revolver that much! ::) Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: irishtwilight on April 14, 2007, 12:51:34 PM "It's been 12 years now? 11 years? and it just doesn't seem like one
of those things that any of us are really thinking about doing, And I'm not saying never. I would say it would be a good idea to get, just for a couple of shows, to get the original STP? and the original Guns N Roses just to do a couple of shows for the fun of it." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxOZ7P4WPqo Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Mike McKagan on April 14, 2007, 12:54:56 PM Hmmm. I'm thinking Slash might want to look up the phrase "good idea" to see if he's using it correctly. ;D
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: DethRose on April 14, 2007, 12:59:57 PM Axl would probly never let a reunion happen :'(
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: MotherGooseLuvR on April 14, 2007, 01:03:49 PM Yeah right. Now that the world has heard "Outta Get Me" with two synths, nobody's going to care about hearing it played the normal way.
Nice try, $lash, but you can't put this genie back in the bottle. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Skunk on April 14, 2007, 01:06:02 PM Have you heard Chinese Democracy?
"I haven't heard it... it hasn't come out yet" :hihi: that's hysterical. Eh, maybe someday Slash will get on stage the way Izzy does. But after the release, i think reunion talk will quiet to a near hush. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: darkmonth on April 14, 2007, 01:06:19 PM Slash is only saying this shit to try to detract attention from the current Guns.

Dude ... you know rightly ... as a grown adult ... in your mind... that Slash did NOT say that to stir shit. LOL. That's a pretty silly idea. And another thing ... none of the old members of GNR have sold out. And you know it :P I love the new GnR, but don't be so hateful towards the old members man :) Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: wewantslash on April 14, 2007, 01:13:33 PM waaaaooo
first time i hear slash speaking about a reunion possible someday so clearly of course reunion will happen someday for sure, the only question is when, this itw might be an opened door as reunions are in the air lately, the police is a good example solding out 80,000 stadium so fast, i'm sure the real GNR will do that someday. of course chinese have to come out before & after the Chinese world tour done, it may be the good timing. especially if chinese dont sell well.... of course that might be why axl delays & delays? the release of chinese cos after it's out the reunion will be the only option if it dont sell well, & axl probably doesnt want to take that way... i vote for slash as usual Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Axlfreek on April 14, 2007, 01:21:11 PM it would definatly bring a tear in my eye to see the boys back together (in a good way).
but right now axl needs to focus on gettign the album out and touring with the urent line-up. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Bert on April 14, 2007, 01:34:29 PM I think it'd be okay for Slash to play some songs with GNR after they got Chinese Democracy out.
Right now, people still think of GNR as Axl Rose ... that has to change first - not saying that it will completely - by releasing the album, so people can hear the contributions by the new members. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Rocker_GNR on April 14, 2007, 01:59:04 PM Take it easy boys, the reunion will come sooner or later.
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: slashisvr on April 14, 2007, 02:03:39 PM Its just a metter of time before they get back together...im predicting a short tour folloed by an album and a tour then they will leave it as quits as GNR goes...
if you think it will never happen you're an idiot i mean tommy lee and vince neil hated eachother much more than anyone in GNR....non of them hate eachother...its just bitter feeling and stubborness. look at all the great bands....they all get back in some way or form. it will happen and when it does i will be there Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Grouse on April 14, 2007, 02:10:54 PM Do we really need 4 threads on the same fucking subject...
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: FunkyMonkey on April 14, 2007, 03:32:29 PM Do we really need 4 threads on the same fucking subject... Looks like they merged them all into my thread. I'm not reading too much into this clip. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: estebanf on April 14, 2007, 03:44:35 PM bah... I dont want a reunion, I like this current GNR lineup and Axl seems to think like me about this.
Dream on slash... Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Naupis on April 14, 2007, 04:11:27 PM Quote I think it'd be okay for Slash to play some songs with GNR after they got Chinese Democracy out. No it wouldn't, because it wouldn't be fair to the new band members. It would be pandamonium in any arena that type of thing were to happen, and it would immediately remind people how stupid it was they all broke up in the first place, and just how electric it is when they are on stage together. That scenario doesn't help GNR or VR. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Jim Bob on April 14, 2007, 05:31:55 PM Slash is only saying this shit to try to detract attention from the current Guns.

I dont want a reunion, I like this current GNR lineup and Axl seems to think like me about this. Dream on slash... exactly. its not going to happen, not with how amazing the band is, no reason to fuck up that chemistry and all. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: CheapJon on April 14, 2007, 05:36:41 PM if this reunion was to be, and for real and it would be lasting with axl, slash, duff, dizzy izzy and matt/adler.. i would hope that pitman, frank, bbf, fortus, tommy and finck stayed together as a band and started something cool and could be opener for reunited-GNR, that would also kick ass

Doesn't mean they're not night guys, but Axl Rose is/was/always will be the center of the universe with this group. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Grouse on April 14, 2007, 06:24:17 PM bah... I dont want a reunion, I like this current GNR lineup and Axl seems to think like me about this.

It's stupid to say that it won't happen there's simply too much money involved for it not to happen.... It's pretty fair to say that without Axl Rose singing in front of them they would be a higher class version of Hookers & Blow and have a hard time selling out a dive bar.

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Jim Bob on April 14, 2007, 06:31:57 PM Axl reuniting with the originals would be a very stupid move on his part. Thats why I'm convinced he won't do it. He would be selling out every last bit of integrity he has and he would be a complete failure. No amount of money is worth that, and therefore he is not going to do it. He will keep going with the band he has, and rightfully so.
Slash can dream all he wants. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: shaunbhoy on April 14, 2007, 06:35:25 PM Axl reuniting with the originals would be a very stupid move on his part.? ?

Slash is 10 times better than Robin Finck dude, Axl would probably want Slash to play at a few shows, cause Slash is G'N'R , Robin (fuckhead, l live on another planet) Finck ain't G'N'R he is with the Axl Rose band old timer. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: GnR-NOW on April 14, 2007, 06:42:16 PM This is what they should do. Bury the hatchet. Now I'm all for the current GNR, I don't want to see a reunion, I love the band the way it is. And Velvet Revolver is too good of a band to just break up. So what they should do is tour together. Do a HUGE world tour GNR/VR World Tour ! They would play their own sets, but for the final song of the night. The original GNR members would do Paradise City.

I agree that it would indeed be a very stupid move from both sides to do a full blown reunion tour but if they were to come together for a charity like let's say live Aid and just do that show I could live with that... Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: slashisvr on April 15, 2007, 05:23:27 AM It will happen...its a matter of time.axl wouldnt be selling out to anyone....i mean they guys broke up over musical direction diffrences...while the new GNR music has changed...so has slash's style using much more available to them.
theyr'es just as grouse said too much money for it not to happen....the band...promoters will make shit loads of money from a tour/show of any kind with the Orignial GNR. i think it's pure stupid if you think it wont happen. dynamic duo's such as slash/axl always end up back together. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Jim Bob on April 15, 2007, 06:01:49 AM this is just slash's attempt to stir up the fanbase. ::)
now he is saying he's open to reunion shows. knowing damn well it would end up on every gnr site on the net. now all these people for whatever reason, take this as "a reunion is going to happen now". and when it doesn't and they are disappointed, guess who is getting the blame!? Slash? nooooo he's the good guy here, he wants to be in GnR again but mean ol Axl won't let him. Thats EXACTLY what will happen. Slash just trying to paint himself like the good guy and make Axl look like a dick. This is exactly the type of shit Axl was talking about that night in Albany in 2002. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: badapple81 on April 15, 2007, 06:10:53 AM Was this interview recent?

There will be no reunion. Oh it's going to happen someday whether you like it or not... It's stupid to say that it won't happen there's simply too much money involved for it not to happen....

So he's the "good guy" who looks like the "good guy" of the two of'em.now he is saying he's open to reunion shows. knowing damn well it would end up on every gnr site on the net. now all these people for whatever reason, take this as "a reunion is going to happen now". and when it doesn't and they are disappointed, guess who is getting the blame!? Slash? nooooo he's the good guy here, he wants to be in GnR again but mean ol Axl won't let him. Thats EXACTLY what will happen.

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: gcluskey on April 16, 2007, 07:41:17 AM Hello? If Slash performed with Axl again it would be the greatest reunion of all time. There's a bunch of children knocking this idea and dissing Slash for saying it! Without even checking profiles I know these are obviously kids that have probably jumped on the GnR bandwagon long after the original band peaked. We all know that Axl is the only original GnR member and that this new band is fantastic but don't ever knock the opportunity for these legends to perform together again. Pink Floyd did it, GnR could do it... I guess it just doesn't mean the same thing to the younger fans who didn't grow up during their hey day! I guess I can understand their ignorance having never experienced what the original band meant to so many people.

Axl would be a massive success if the old GnR got back together. They'd easily sell out stadium gigs worldwide... if they wrote an album, it'd sell FAR more copies than Chinese is likely to. Most GnR fans here love Axl Rose. Most of the outside world who used to know/like GnR, love Slash. It'd be huge. That said ... I think Slagging Slash off for a couple of small comments he made is pointless, and everyone in this thread saying he's an asshole, OR that it'd be awesome coz he's interested ... are stupid. Slash did not say he wants to do it ... he was answering a theoretical question. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Genesis on April 16, 2007, 10:24:45 AM Why is everyone afraid of Slash?

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Grouse on April 16, 2007, 10:37:31 AM here's the full interview, put's things in a little more perspective:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=belDP1nfkXE Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: jarmo on April 16, 2007, 12:28:35 PM Most GnR fans here love Axl Rose. Most of the outside world who used to know/like GnR, love Slash. Is that why Snakepit were playing arenas and headlining festivals? Oh wait.... Slash as a brand is well-known, both for his talents as a guitar player and as a character in the rock n' roll world. But to say he's loved by most of those casual people who used to be into GN'R is kinda ridiculous. Many of them were fans of Axl as well. When people go see GN'R these days they get to hear the voice they recognize from the albums they bought years ago. I don't think the average ticket buyer is that concerned about who plays the guitar parts or who's on drums. That's why VR works. You have the GN'R fan base curious to see what the former members working together can do. Plus you got a bunch of kids who like STP. But I wouldn't be surprised if they find out that the novelty has worn off.... Why is everyone afraid of Slash? Is the current lineup that weak? It's not weak at all. Only some fans think it's "weak" because their favorite members quit ten years ago and they can't get over it. So they think Axl has to let those guys back in. And if he doesn't, he's the asshole who refuses to make the big reunion dream come true. ::) /jarmo Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: mrlee on April 16, 2007, 12:35:47 PM i think alot of what jarmo says on this one is true, however, you cant say you wouldnt like to see the original line up reunite for just one gig.
Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Neemo on April 16, 2007, 12:36:53 PM he says that he was willing to do a couple shows with a reunited STP....thats not a full reunioon with a tour and an album and shit...just a couple gigs ::)

Guns N' Roses to reunite? Slash hints towards 'theoretical' reunion dates 1 hour ago Slash has admitted that he wants his band Velvet Revolver to stop playing songs by Guns N Roses and Stone Temple Pilots, and would instead like the two groups to reunite. Slash also announced to Chilean magazine Rock & Pop that he intends to drop Guns N Roses and Stone Temple Pilots songs from the setlist later this year. However speaking to the Brazilian branch of MTV, the star, who left Guns N Roses in 1996, said reunions of both bands are a possibility. "I'm not saying never," he explained. "You know, I was saying it would be a good idea to get, just for a couple of shows, to get the original STP and the original Guns N Roses just to do a couple of shows for the fun of it." Meanwhile, Velvet Revolver's US tour begins on May 4, though their second album 'Libertad' has had its release pushed back from early June this year to later that month. The first single from the LP will be called 'She Builds Quick Machines. ?

Look I never though a GNR reunion on any scale would be possible , but then izzy jammed and after seeing Pink Floyd reunite , Im amazed that hell didn't freeze over. Slash seems to set differences apart , Right now isn't the best time for Axl , he just got a decent line up together and all that jazz. I could see it in the future , I could see a Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame gig , the beauty. I doubt steven would jump in on the reunion , most likely matt would be drumming :beer: ANY gnr reunion is a good one

I'm so excited to hear new VR material and besids this hasn't been the first time Slash has said this.

So your saying that Slash made a deal with the guy interviewing him before it happened to make sure he mentioned how much Brazil loved Guns N' Roses, and what the chances were of ever getting the band back together? What was he supposed to do when the reporter asks that question, which gets asked of every gunner every time they're interviewed? Storm off the set and tell the guy to fuck himself, or sit there and give him a silent death stare? Maybe you should coach him then on how he is supposed to respond to others who keep brining the subject up. He can't control that, and people will keep asking that question until either it happens or one of them dies.

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: AdlerAddict on April 17, 2007, 08:12:08 AM I definitely think a reunion in the very near future would be badass !

But once again the media always throws this topic in all of their faces and can never get away from it. Dude, you're right in a way, but we are talking about one of the greatest bands ever. So, journalist and fans can't just get around the question of reunion and not mention it. Velvet Revolver weren't and won't be ever as big as GN'R were. It same goes for Axl and Guns now. It's just that the world have a music hunger for bad ass rock n' roll. I am also excited about Libertad and Chinese Democracy but it is not as Guns N' Roses during the '80 and '90's. And of course, this is only my opinion. And yes, if I meet one day Axl, Slash, Izzy, Duff, Steven or Matt I will ask him if he's planning a reunion with the others and than I will ask them about the current projects. :peace: Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: AdlerAddict on April 17, 2007, 10:08:11 AM I've seen both the 91' lineup and 2006 lineup.
Axl's new guns are good musicians but you can tell right away that it's a completely different band on all levels. The chemistry and raw vibe that the original lieup shared will probably never be matched. I think Slash saying he would do a reunion is probably music to Axl's ears.

It's just that the world have a music hunger for bad ass rock n' roll. I am also excited about Libertad and Chinese Democracy but it is not as Guns N' Roses during the '80 and '90's. And of course, this is only my opinion. And yes, if I meet one day Axl, Slash, Izzy, Duff, Steven or Matt I will ask him if he's planning a reunion with the others and than I will ask them about the current projects.? :peace: I couldn't agree with you anymore, the orginal Gunner are one of the greatest bands of all time. VR nor Axl's G n' R will ever be as big as Guns were from 88 - 93, they were the last great rock n' roll band. I guess my point is that I think the media should just give it a break for a while, let VR and Axl run it's course. It seems that no matter what any former band member say it snowballs and nothing good ever comes of it. This thread is a perfect example.

Unfortunatelly, Steven is not so powerful (as a musician, as a human, as a position in the band) as Izzy, Slash and Duff were. Especially Slash. So many people don't regret Matt replacing Steven. Actually, a lot think that Matt was better. BUT, Slash, Izzy and Duff are tottally different case... Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: jarmo on April 17, 2007, 08:12:13 PM You can twist it any way you want. The original line-up ended in 1990.

I had my fun with that band when I was 12 years old. Anyone who thinks it'd be remotely similar in the year 2007 is delusional. You don't capture that sort of energy twice. This new incarnation is a fantastic, albeit different, animal and I look forward to the day when we can see the fruits of their labor.

however, this is a leading question asked by an interviewer with the clear intent of getting a desired response. its easy for slash to simply say, yeah it would be cool then all the interviewer does is fit a story around that. total non-event.

...is it so hard to do a quick browse first for an existing topic before starting another one of exactly the same thing? This has been posted plenty of times here already and there's a thread in the VR section (where it belongs) with about 6 pages of replies. This means nothing anyway. Slash has always seemed to be either way about a reunion possibilty. Doesn't mean it's any closer to happening. Title: Re: Re-Union?

The ex-GN'R guitarist,Slash, has recently revealed that he wanted his current band - Velvet Revolver - and Guns N' Roses to reunite. Velvet Revolver is composed of three ex-GN'R members: Slash, Duff Rose McKagan and Matt Sorum,? Dave Kushner (Wasted Youth), and one ex-member of Stone Temple Pilots, Scott Weiland. The reunion could come true, says Slash, with two live shows. Meanwhile VR is releasing their second album, "Libertad", in June. Guns N' Roses has often talked about the possibility of a reunion, without make it happen. This should happen with the release of a new opus : "Chinese Democracy". However, a fansite has been closed for protesting against the eternal delay of the new album. It has to be precised that It (the CD) is long awaited (10 years). That makes It the longest awaited album in rock history. What a huge pile of crap. Thankx to the journalists who do such a great work in researchs. And finally, thankx Slash for trying to fuck up the upcoming GN'R tour and the imminent release of Chinese Democracy with your comments.

I believe he said it'd be cool to do a couple of shows, not a whole tour. And that was only because he was asked about it. Slash has always been so-so about a reunion anyway, it's not as though he's quitting VR to pursue this. He just said it'd be cool for STP and GN'R to play some shows. And he's always seemed open to the idea, sometimes more than others. I wouldn't believe that stuff about Duff either, that just apparently came from some fan. I'll believe it when I see it come from Duff's mouth himself.

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: estebanf on April 19, 2007, 01:19:52 PM Do you know any album where Axl is without Slash/Duff/Izzy? No, I don't.

TWAT, Kashmir, Let It Be, Innuendo, Jeremy I think TWAT is completely ordinary and looks very out of place on that list. :-\ 1- That is gonna end soon, anyway, why do you think that the delay is strictly because of the absence of Slash/Duff/Matt?

Do they have release worth a damn without Axl? :hihi: 3- I dont care about YOUR opinion about TWAT being ''ordinary''... I am unable to care, since you're a VR fan... in fact, its very funny to hear something like that from your mouth 4- The only reason (I know its an enormous one) because TWAT is out of place in that list is because there is not a finished studio version yet. And that's it. I'll stop with this. I am sick and tired of comparing VR with Guns N' Roses.

I think Sla$h is trying to fuck up GN'R's comeback because he sees that the cd is almost there. Just tell me why a guy who is on tour with his band, supporting his forthcoming album, would say something like that ? What are his reasons ? I wonder what Weiland thinks about that.

STP's stuff is better than Contraband. Izzy's stuff is better than Contraband. Contraband has some good songs, but most of it feels really rushed.. which makes it a poor album overall. It's really repetitive. That said, my hopes for Libertad are high however. I already like Get Out The Door and She Mine more than some of the new GnR songs and I do think VR can pull off something great. But Contraband just wasn't it :P The only songs I like from Contraband are Fall To Pieces and Slither. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: shaunbhoy on April 28, 2007, 02:00:08 PM Basic Facts

I haven't seen him come up with a solo as good as anything from 1987-1993, and I think it's good he left. These days his playing is bland as fuck and I really don't care for it.

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Demon Wolf on April 29, 2007, 08:20:42 AM I also felt that most of Contraband was rushed. There seems to be no real effort behind the songs there. There is a riff that is used in the intro and during the verses, then comes a refrain with three or four long chords, back to the riff, riff still going during the verse, another refrain... and to top it off comes the Slash solo over the refrain chords. A final refrain, and maybe back to the riff. :rant: My, what a lot of smilies. Do you post as 'Funeral' over at MYGNR? :hihi: UYI2 is full of bloated shit, imo.

I can understand you feel that way, but as an admin you only make things worse. It's your board so you can run it anyway you want it, but I don't think that your negative comments/complaints have any added value. I think that you maybe should consider deleting the VR section. And just let anything Slash/Duff related be discussed in the "Ex-Gunners" section. Seriously, it's not much fun anymore. Or do you still want/need to have those visitors who come for VR? Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: rmp472 on April 30, 2007, 08:25:35 AM The one thing I don't understand about Jarmo, having been reading messages on this board for a long time before now posting, is that Axl's new guns n roses has yet to release an album. If He has a website dedicated to guns n roses, it must be based on what all of us loved, the original guns n roses that released all the albums to date. Unless this is truly a website for Axl Rose, than why not accept Velvet revolver, it has 3 of the original member from the older albums, if you include Matt. Guns n roses was a band, Slash is a great guitarist. I personally like the Velvet Revolver music, is it as good as the Guns n Roses albums that were made by the original band? Probably not, but there are some good songs and the new stuff sounds better to me, considering we have only heard 3 songs or so, and those are live. I was a big guns n roses fan, and the leaks sound pretty good, but I am definitely in the camp that Axl should have changed the name. Gun n Roses was a band, not just Axl's band. Velvet revolver is a band as well, and not trying to use the name Gun n Roses. That being said, why be negative to either, just enjoy the music that gets made. A reunion might not really result in that magic from the past, and it might be sad. And a reunion just for some show to play the old songs, while neat, doesn't really do it for me. We already have the classic catalog of GNR music, I would like to see them reunite and make some awesome music, but if they tried and made mediocre music, it might tarnish the image. Even if Chinese democracy is better than the VR stuff, it still isn't worth 12-15 years or whatever it's been.

Quote If you can't stand the fact that GN'R fans might not like what VR stands for or their music, then you need to go look somewhere else for the fan boy posts. I don't care for that. But like I said before, you as a moderator set a very negative tone and atmosphere. I can understand you dislike VR and are annoyed by all the negative comments made about Axl/GnR by VR fans. But you take it too far. Quote You people are fucking crying about censorship, but when we say something bad about this band, we should just shut up....

I just think that you as a site owner and moderator should be the bigger man in these cases, which you are obviously not. But like I said before, it's your website. I just thought you were smarter than that. And it's pretty clear that you do not want VR fans here or people who like VR and GnR cause you do everything to make VR look stupid. So I guess my days here are over as well. Not because I dislike GnR, I love 'em and I love Axl and I am still patiently waiting for the new album to come out, but because of the fact that this site is run by someone who rather asks people to leave than to create a neutral atmosphere.

In case you missed it, VR has a bunch of fans who never cared for GN'R. They might've liked STP though. Like any other band, they probably have fans who just got into music and haven't discovered the members' former bands yet.

I dont know how this board is ruled. For example, I was the administrator of a very active 3000 people forum, and I always said that I DO NOT CARE if people insult me, as long as they do not insult any GNR member or the GNR name. Personal insults like ''fuck you'' are nothing compared to a couple of dudes saying constantly that this band is NOT Guns N' Roses, and they also invented a name for it. That's what I call a real insult, a fault that deserves at least a karma, and if it is constant like RockerGNR or the guy I insulted, well... that deserves a ban, because... what the fuck are you doing here, a Guns N' Roses message board, if you sistematically deny the glorious name of this band we all love and the forum is dedicated for? Now, just to give you a solid proof of what I'm saying, I will quote Jarmo, just a posts after my insult Quote Well I got news for you old chum: This is a Guns N' Roses message board and if you don't like it, fuck off. Jarmo reacted practically the same as me, and trust me: I understand him. I am not an english speaking man, and maybe i do not notice the differences, but what is the big difference between ''fuck you'' and ''fuck off''? They're both rude replies, that are perfectly understandable reactions for a GNR fan that sees his favourite band being insulted that way. The moderators should not take care (with the intensity you did) of some sporadic insults made by a GNR fan who is sick of the constant alteration of the band own name. Maybe they should take care of the people who register to this forum without being a Guns N' Roses fan. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: NicoRourke on April 30, 2007, 06:38:31 PM you are wrong, I know many people that don't like current line up but are great fans of Guns n' Roses, I think you are confuse, people I know are fans of GNR but not only Axl rose, so they love the old BAND and about current GNR don't like new song, new style, don't like how Finck plays Slash' solos, etc.. but they are fans of Guns n' Roses yet. ok, since you obviously didn't read my post, I'll spell it out for you. Those people are not GnR fans, they are fans of what GnR W-A-S.? ?Thats past tense, not what is. The New band won't last long ::) It's lasting longer than the old one.

Posts that only attack another poster without any contribution to the discussion aren't allowed. Anyone consistently attacking other board members will be banned". You even acknowledged you would be out of line with this little gem: you know what is sad? if I just say ''fuck you'' to you, I would be the one with more negative karma or banned,? You didn't get negative karma or a mention of banning, you merely got reprimanded with the same zeal you insulted the prior poster. I could care less what section of what board this is, courtesy and respect should be at the forefront at all times. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: estebanf on April 30, 2007, 10:53:21 PM You didn't get negative karma or a mention of banning, you merely got reprimanded with the same zeal you insulted the prior poster. I could care less what section of what board this is, courtesy and respect should be at the forefront at all times. You keep ignoring my point. I know what the rules are, and If you put me negative karma I wasn't going to be surprised. But you talk about courtesy and respect, and you only warn me, when you have a much bigger insult, that not only includes ONE person, but all the GNR fans. Let's see: Quote Basic Facts Guns N Roses 1985- 1994 The Axl Rose Band 2001-onwards This board is leaded by someone who DOES NOT THINK that Guns N' Roses died in 1994. In other words, this is a message board that believes that Guns N' Roses was born in 1985 and still doesnt have a decease date. Stating that the band we all love died in 1994 is an insult not only to the band, its also a collective insult to all the Guns N' Roses fans posting in this board. And that is not all: they invented a brand new name ''Axl Rose Band'' and they freely use it all over the board without being warned. I am NOT discussing your warning to me, I am only saying that you should also warn the people that systematically insult the band. Anyone can make an sporadic insult to another member, and that is not a justificative to not to be warned. But you may realise that there are 5 or 6 people that have as the only purpose for being at this board insulting the band, its name, its decisions. My suggestion (and just that, a suggestion) is to pay more attention to these 5 or 6 people rather than in one single insult of a person who is a fan and supports the band. Nothing more. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: Falcon on May 01, 2007, 12:25:23 AM You keep ignoring my point. No, I just don't think it's valid. We can't control/moderate peoples opinions on the band(s), they are what they are. To consider someone's perception of the band as some sort of "mass insult" is just goofy. The fact of the matter remains there are some that will never accept GNR in it's current form the same way some will never acknowledge the former members beyond their association with GNR. It works both ways. Don't take it so personal and ease off the "fuck you's" and your stay here will be much more pleasant. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: rmp472 on May 01, 2007, 10:27:56 AM I don't see why it has to be so black and white for some people. I understand Gun n Roses still exists, but I think Slash and Izzy and Duff were all a big enough part of Guns n Roses that out of respect Axl should have changed the name. I can't wait to hear the new album when if comes out, but it won't be the same, many people will be wondering how much better the material could have been with Slash and the others involved.
I like Velvet Revolver, is it as good as original Guns n Roses, definitely not, but if they continue to make albums, and you take the best songs off all VR albums released from the beginning up to 13 years from when they first got together, and compare it to Chinese democracy, it would probably compare pretty well. Who knows, Chinese Democracy might be a masterpiece, but I for one will be listening to it thinking how Slash's riffs might have really made the songs that much better. Seriously, what they had back when the original band was together was amazing chemistry, and great music came from that. They are the reason everyone on both the latest G n R boards and the Velvet Revolver boards are here, not on some VR Stone Temple Pilots website. Since no music has officially been released by the latest members of G n R, hoe many people can be fans of only G n R as we know it today?

Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: estebanf on May 03, 2007, 01:16:30 PM i enjoy all 3 bands GUNS N ROSES new and old , VELVET REVOLVER Yeah! I understand you!

I enjoy all his 5 five bands: Metallica (Ron McGovney) New Metallica (Cliff Burton) New New Metallica (with Mustaine) New New New Metallica (without Mustaine, with Jason Newsted) New New New New Metallica (with Trujillo) But is very difficult to compare different bands with different albums like these! I want to compare New New New Metallica's Black Album with New New New New Metallica ''St Anger'', but its senseless since they are different bands playing totally different styles (''The Unnamed Feeling'' doesnt sound like ''Sad But True'' and ''Frantic'' doesnt sound like ''The Unforgiven'', you know) Please, dont forget to note the sarcasm... Quote Axl Rose- Original G'N'R frontman who went missin for half a decade trying to reinvent G'N'R Robin Finck- A weirdo guitarist who wears girls clothes and lives on another planet Tommy Stinson- A bassist who has motoring accidents down stairs and breaks his hand easily Richard Fortus- An Izzy look-alike guitarsit Bumblefoot- A guitarist with a guitar on the shape of feet and and a bee Chris Pittman- An orchestral keyboard player who can play the creepy intro to WTTJ Dizzy Reed- Old Pianist of G'N'R l don't understand why people think this is G'N'R casue its not To consider someone's perception of the band as some sort of "mass insult" is just goofy. yeah, sure. Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: slashvr86 on May 03, 2007, 10:23:35 PM dude u forgot the key element there james hetfield and lars ulrich pretty much write the music and lyrics for that band and they have always been there. so dont compare because its a totally different band and situation .if i recall AXL ROSE DID NOT WRITE ALL THE MUSIC IN GUNS N ROSES just mainly the lyrics which were great? so dude get over urself. axl wrote sum songs on the piano for the band which were great but not really suited for guns and sum mediocre rock songs (shotgun blues, dead horse) big fuken deal. please wen every1 remembers guns n roses they remember APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION where slash izzy and duff wrote the music probaly one of the greatest albums of all time not UYI 1 and 2 those albums were mediocre
just think this if AEROSMITH were to break up and only steve tyler were to continue on with a whole bunch of new players would u still call it aerosmith?

Slash will reinventing GNR sooner or later.

It's funny that you think YOU have the right to determine what is or isn't GnR but AXL ROSE doesn't :smoking: Title: Re: Slash on GNR Reunion Post by: metallex78 on May 05, 2007, 03:44:14 AM Yeah!

Anyway, this topic is about Slash wanting to break up VR and reunite GN'R right...? :hihi: :rofl: |
